Viral Video: ‘If not friendly, then why friend shaped’ is a perfect phrase that reptile lovers often find themselves thinking about. From crocodiles to alligators, reptiles are not exactly meant to be a human’s friend. The same goes for the exotic yet dangerous snakes, but reptile lovers, mostly don't believe in this belief. The same goes for this woman, who is doing rounds on the internet for her video that left the netizens petrified. The said woman, who seems to work in a zoo, was seen cuddling multiple pythons. The woman was practically sitting in a pit of pythons slithering all around her. A video of the same was shared on social media and instantly went viral.
The video was posted on the Instagram handle ‘The Reptile Zoo’. The post was captioned, “These snakes don’t want to cuddle! I wanted to do a quick educational video about a few of them, but as expected, these guys can be so unpredictable! That’s okay! Lol. What can you expect from snakes.”
In the video, a woman was seen sitting in the middle of some massive pythons. She was trying to play and cuddle them, however, the reptiles were surely not interested. The woman appeared professional, while she also clarified that she wanted to make it an educational video.

The video instantly went viral as it was quick to send chills down the spine of many. Most people called her daring and found the reptiles somewhat cute, while others expressed their concern for the woman’s safety and dubbed the snakes unpredictable. Many also joked about the video and the situation. The clip was posted two days ago and pulled 14K views from the netizens.
Taking to the comment box, people shared their take. “Indiana Jones would be screaming himself hoarse,” a user said. “So far I see you don't need a mattress,” added another. “I thought when snakes cuddle( ie boas and pythons) it never works out for individual animal that gets cuddled,” said a third netizen. “Maybe they’ll come back for cuddles after they explore, but hopefully not all of them at once!” said a fourth person. “Why do they look kinda comfy to snuggle,” said a fifth person. “I'd be worried if snakes that size wanted to cuddle me,” said a sixth person. “Well as long as their well fed before you cuddle or you'll be their next meal,” commented a seventh person. “I enjoy ALL of your videos… BUT I must admit that I scroll past the ones with these huge snakes,” said another.
